Endless – Penumbra Haiku

Once 俳句

path for each teardrop
granite shivers from echoes
hushed endless heartbeats

Unseen 俳句

comet’s white umbra
withdrawn heartbeats ‘midst sorrow
white ink tattoos mist

. . . . . someone who picks up a seashell to hear whispering stars, not surf
. . . . . someone who writes to explore the dark, yet frees the light
. . . . . someone who skywrites without wings
. . . . . someone who stargazes using only a pen
. . . . . someone who paints the silence ‘tween heartbeats
. . . . . someone who reflects moonbeams onto paper
. . . . . someone who knows the difference between silence and silent
. . . . . someone who carves runes on cheese then serves on crackers with whiskey
. . . . . someone who would rather be a mime than an actor
. . . . . someone who dips feather quills into red wine for ink
. . . . . someone who briefly seduces silence into a captive audience
. . . . . someone who confides in starlight with no expectations at all
. . . . . someone who answers questions that will never be asked
. . . . . someone who would rather be a story than a fact
. . . . . someone who returns a wave from a stranger,
. . . . . . .then realizes it was a cloud, shaped like a dragon

A Poet is . . . . someone who is truly patient . . . . waits for the right words . . . . for the right person . . . . for all the right reasons . . . . for the right moment . . . . but no sooner . . . . yet all too often . . . . too late . . . .

Fade 俳句

auroras last strut
shadows skirt prismatic fate
silence ‘tween echoes

Paradox 俳句

shadows seek moonlight
lusty heartbeats share silence
runes tease aurora

Hold 俳句

heartbeats within stars
reflected moonbeams ‘neath dew
midnight whispers pause

Hope 俳句

hewn in fog with sighs
silence between moonlit runes
ancient hearts carve faith

Slant 俳句

starlight confirms prism
rose curtsies ‘neath moonlit runes
thorns align with scent

Enthral 俳句

moonbeam confidante
scribe traces constellations
streaking comet runes

Abundance 俳句

lustrous moonbeams thrive
ancient light seeks virgin rose
richness of heartbeats
